Yeah, I don’t really see Sutter as an option. Brooks brought him up once, just as a mention, and hasn’t brought him up since.
Has he even said he wants to coach again?

If by some miracle the Leafs come back and win the series, where would the Boston pick be? 22-25 range?
Something like that. Closer to 25 than 22.If by some miracle the Leafs come back and win the series, where would the Boston pick be? 22-25 range?
If you trade him today, you would at least get a a top quality prospect in return.It comes from eight assists in 32 games. It's that simple. People say "stats aren't everything..."
for an offensive defenseman, they are. He's skilled, for sure, and a case could be made that AV didn't give him enough but Ruff was also there. With a great debut in Phoenix two seasons ago... then 32-0-8... that's where the narrative is coming from... like John Moore (and the obligatory 3rd... sorry) lol... but really... and no love for him... 32-0-8 is heading toward bustdom for an offensive defenseman with questionable D.
As for the ankle, not what I meant--I think/hope he'll fully recover. But since you mention it, ANY injury depreciates trade value to an extent (probably more so for a questionable, young player) until he's 100% and performing well again.
So, for ME, that's where the narrative is coming from. I'm more confused that why, since Leetch, this team has had such awful luck finding that high-end offensive D-man, and yet everyone thinks we've found that in a young player who's given no reason to believe that in over a year.
He doesn't have much value right now BUT is definitely worth keeping if things go as we hope.
I sincerely doubt that.If you trade him today, you would at least get a a top quality prospect in return.

Picks 16 to ___ are determined by the regular season standings for non-CF teams who didn't win the dvision. The next picks go to division winners who didn't make it to the CF. Then the CF losers, SCF loser, SCF winner.
Boston did not win the Atlantic. They came in 4th in the regular season behind Nashville, Winnipeg, and Tampa, in that order.
Washington, Nashville, Vegas, and Tampa won their divisions.
It's a bit convoluted still. We will definitely know where the pick is by the end of the next round.
- The teams that did not qualify for the playoffs the previous season (picks 1–15)
- The teams that made the playoffs in the previous season but did not win either their division in the regular season or play in the Conference Finals (picks 16–23 up to 27)
- The teams that won their divisions in the previous season but did not play in the Conference Finals (potentially picks 24–27)
- The teams that lose in Conference Finals (picks 28 and 29)
- The team that was the runner-up in the Stanley Cup Finals (pick 30)
- The team that won the Stanley Cup in the previous season (pick 31)
Top quality meaning a player who will be a pro NHLer, not an elite talent prospect but someone who projects to be in the NHL.Define top quality. He's 22 and if he is traded, it will be his 4th team.
Not even Grabners fault honestly, Devils have NO clue how to use him.Still can’t believe how badly Gorton beaned Shero on the Grabner trade
I bet the people who are mad he traded with the Devils have changed their mind
No you wouldn't. You'd probably get a top 75 or a middle-tier prospect.If you trade him today, you would at least get a a top quality prospect in return.
Keep in mind that Deangelo was originally traded from Tampa for the 37th pick. His value has probably gone down, so a third isn't that unrealistic
Zero reason to move ADA. We're not exactly brimming with right-handed defenseman, and he deserves the chance under a new coach.
So the best case is 26, NSH and WPG will play each other in the CF SF, so the 27 is impossible.Here's the explanation:
Boston winning the Cup = 31
Boston losing the final = 30
Boston losing the conference final = 29 (NSH or WPG losing the WCF) or 28 (Any other team losing the WCF)
Boston not making the ECF:
27 if TBL, WPG and NSH make it to the CF
26 if 2 of TBL, WPG and NSH make it to the CF
25 if 1 of them makes it
24 if none make the CF

Take McLeod too.
What’s crazy is that the pick Deangelo was traded for ended up being Libor Hajek lolKeep in mind that Deangelo was originally traded from Tampa for the 37th pick. His value has probably gone down, so a third isn't that unrealistic
Damn someone beat me to itTB got a 2nd for ADA from Arizona. They used the 2nd on Hajek. ADA is not worth a 2nd right now.
